Andrius Burba - Six months

Burba, 39, killed a man in a fight in Lithuania on September 15, 2003, and was jailed for seven years and three months. Although sentenced for murder in his native country, his advocate, Antony Farrell, described the incident as a "one-punch manslaughter", and said it would probably have been charged as the lesser offence of manslaughter in the UK.

He had been in the UK since at least 2012, but his "substantial" criminal record only came to light when he was identified by a fingerprint in 2016, Hull Crown Court heard.

Burba's offending included forging his daughter's birth certificate in Hull.

Andrew Oslear - 19 months

Oslear, 47, had been jailed four times for violence and robbery, but underwent a "sea change" in 2002 when he quit alcohol and drugs, Hull Crown Court heard.

He became a counsellor and helped others lead "positive" lives.

But after beginning a relationship in October last year with a woman who was vulnerable after previous domestic abuse, he became "controlling" and "aggressive", causing her to briefly move out on Christmas Eve.

He turned violent against her when she went to his flat late on February 25, grabbing her hair and punching her twice.

As she tried to leave, he grabbed her by the shoulders and shover her head-first down the stairs.

He was jailed for 19 months and made subject to a restraining order for five years.

Benjamin Lumby - 30 months

Lumby, 28, groomed girls on Facebook before taking them out in his Vauxhall Corsa and having sex with them after plying them with food, alcohol and cannabis.

He was jailed for 30 months after a host of offences, including breaching a sexual harm prevention order and perverting the course of justice.

Detective Inspector Paul Welton believes Lumby's hefty spell behind bars sends out a clear message to others that pursuing children for sexual activity will not be tolerated.

Richard Goodyer - 15 months

'Scarlet Pimpernel' Richard Goodyer is finally behind bars after a year on the run.

Police could not find the violent criminal who evaded justice for a year, despite him living in a council flat and claiming benefits.

A warrant was issued for Richard Goodyer's arrest on September 5 last year after he failed to attend Hull Crown Court for sentencing for a series of offences, including an assault in which he broke a woman's thumb and left her with head injuries.

Hull's most senior judge twice publicly warned Goodyer he would be sentenced in his absence if he failed to attend court, and asked police to make final checks to see whether he was dead or alive.

Pawel Bugajski - 16 months

Bugajski, 24, of Beverley Road, west Hull, pulled into her path while trying to overtake a lorry on the B1248 at Towthorpe, just before 5pm on February 23.

He was behind the wheel of the left-hand drive silver VW Golf estate he had arrived in from his native Poland just a week earlier, and relied on his girlfriend in the passenger seat to tell him the road ahead was clear.

It was not, and the victim's red Suzuki, which was travelling in the opposite direction, could not avoid the impact which happened at an estimated combined collision speed of 100mph, Hull Crown Court heard.

She suffered a broken neck, a fracture to her spine, fractures to her right foot and ankle, and other injuries.

Bugajski cried in the dock when the judge jailed him for 16 months.

He was banned from driving for four years and seven months and must pass an extended test before he can drive again.

Further drugs including tramadol and 115 diazepam tablets were found in a search of his then home in 5th Avenue, north Hull.

He was granted bail after appearing in court on April 20 this year, but five days later was seen by police with another man, both of them on bicycles, approaching a group which included known drug users in Reynoldson Street, west Hull, at 1pm.

McMurray tried to ride off but was stopped. He had £410 in his jacket, and while he was being searched, three wraps of heroin and four of crack cocaine fell from his boxer shorts.

Nelson, 25, left his victim lying in the road with a double fracture of the jaw, a black eye and a broken tooth after attacking him with his cousin in Bridlington at 1am on February 19.

The injuries "marred" the victim's wedding a week later, and delayed his plans to start a new career in the RAF by six months. He needed an operation under general anaesthetic to have two plates and screws fitted in his jaw.

He was jailed for 18 months.

Dalan Mercer - Six years

Troubled teenager Dalan Mercer bit part of a man's ear off over an argument on Facebook.

Mercer, 19, attacked the victim while he was dozing in a west Hull hostel on December 30, then spat his severed flesh on the floor. A witness later handed it in at a police station.

Mercer, who was angry about comments the man made in an argument between others on Facebook, claimed he was acting in self-defence after being attacked first.

After maintaining his innocence before a jury, he changed his plea to guilty of inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent on Tuesday, the second day of his trial at Hull Crown Court, after being invited to consider his position by a judge.

He was then convicted by the jury and was sentenced to six years detention.

Ian Collinson - 12 years

Collinson, 46, was jailed for 12 years for a "campaign of sexual abuse" against two of the boys he targeted.

Collinson, who met one while he was "hanging around" Pearson Park, and the other under a railway bridge, also in west Hull, plied them both with cigarettes, and one with alcohol and sweets, while also taking him for rides on his motorcycle.

His sexual abuse of each boy got progressively worse until he raped one of them in a disused building, and got the other to perform a serious sexual offence on him.

Collinson had his licence period on release extended by a year, and must register as a sex offender for life.

Ashley Smith - 57 months

Ashley Smith led a violent attack on a shopkeeper and held a filleting knife to a man's face to rob his motorbike during a "chilling" crime spree in west Hull.

Smith, 19, was also seen running through Hull city centre with a "long metal bar" after a confrontation with the owner of a laptop stolen from a takeaway.

He has been sent to a young offender institution for more than four years after being branded "off the rails".

He had 16 previous offences on his record, including two for having weapons, and an attempted robbery.

Judge David Tremberg said he was concerned Smith's offending was escalating, and told him: "The fact you were rattling around Hull with a lethal weapon, aiming it at people in order to steal, is chilling. One wrong move by somebody and who knows?"
